Infosec from @rattis' point of view

One of the differences between college and real life (bias in speaking)

Last talk I have, I expected audience participation, because I asked for it. I failed the audience. I know how to improve the talk for last time.

What was my bias that lead to me failing the audience? I’m used to participation being part of my grade, and having to participate. Others in classes were the same way. Yes we had some that barely participated. But usually half the class did.

Because that’s what I was used to in college class setting, that’s what I expected at a conference talk. The result was I failed my audience with expectations that I shouldn’t have put on them.
